What people ask us about an outright land sale
What is an outright land sale?
A sale with no conditions such as planning permission. Once contracts are exchanged, both sides are committed to complete on the agreed date.
Can I still benefit if you get planning later?
Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.
Can you pull out after exchange?
No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.
Do you buy land in Burntwood?
Yes. We consider land in and around Burntwood and across Staffordshire. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, especially its access and planning prospects, and we'll tell you either way.
